The Two Cultures and the Scientific Revolution

Meer over het boek

C. P. Snow's influential Rede Lecture explores the division between the sciences and the humanities, arguing that this split hinders the resolution of global issues. The lecture, which gained significant attention in both the UK and the US, prompted discussions about the need for a more integrated intellectual approach. Its impact led Snow to expand on these ideas in a follow-up work, further examining the relationship between these two cultures and the scientific revolution.
